Bumba Cabocla

[HeavyFuel]

Hi all, hope everyone is set for Xmas.
I have a query. Has anyone had experience with a Bumba Cabocla. Mine is doing fine but I can only find little information on them. Can anyone provide tips on their temperament and what substrate they are using.
Mine turned up in a mystery box that my missus got me for Christmas. So was a little unprepared for it.
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried searching for info?
What research have you done?

I keep them just like any other tarantula. Dry to slightly moist substate. Any substate will work, I use mostly Coco-fibre.

I had one, he turned out to be a male & was passed on for breeding. He liked deep substrate & was rarely seen. I kept the substrate dry & overflowed the water dish occasionally & kept moving the water dish to allow the substrate to fully dry out in each area.

I have googled it and checked youtube but could find little info for keeping them in captivity. So came to the best place to get info. Direct from others who have kept them. Hence why I came on here.

Thanks, that's how mine is set up at the moment.

They are essentially a Borneo pet hole, like Euthycaelus colonica favoring deep moist substrate and also bereft of a ton of information on their keeping
